Motherhood changes women – by design. 🦋It's not a problem. It's not something to fix. In fact, it's an opportunity. An invitation. A door.With the right resources and support, even early motherhood can be a deeply transformative, meaningful and even joyful time.The problem is how little our culture – including our workplaces – understand and support women during this incredibly potent time. In order to thrive, women and mothers need more than just paid leave.We as women need:• Space to process fertility, pregnancy, birth or postpartum experiences• To be witnessed and supported by other women (the "village")• Guidance integrating our changing identities, bodies and relationships• Acknowledgment of grief and loss in all of its forms• Support navigating our work in and out of the home• Places to share wins, cultivate joy and create meaning in motherhoodYou can find this – and so much more – in MotherCircle. 🌀MotherCircle is a series of 8 virtual gatherings that act as a map for motherhood, helping you locate yourself, integrate your experiences and emerge with clarity and confidence. It was created by Kimberly Ann Johnson, author of the Fourth Trimester, based on her decades of hands-on work with women globally.MotherCircle is for women who are:• Mothers or want to be mothers (by any means)• Longing for a supportive community• Processing fertility, pregnancy, birth or postpartum experiences• Looking to reconnect to themselves and their work• Grieving a loss of any kind• Craving time and space for true self care• Eager to find joy and create meaning in motherhoodI am facilitating the next MotherCircle this January 2025, on Zoom. Sign up yourself or with a friend. Ask your employer to sponsor your participation or host a private MotherCircle for the women at your company.Regardless of how you join, there is a space for you in MotherCircle. 🌕Take your seat: https://www.mother-woven.com/
